Many people feel powerless in the face of what they see on TV or read in the news – a world in crisis, with wars and violence erupting across the globe.
This workshop is for all those who want to step out of helplessness and apply their own personal skills to do something about the challenges now facing us.

Meals
The Chisholme kitchen provides food in keeping with the spiritual and material aims of its education. Chisholme is not vegetarian but meat is prepared with the deepest respect for its benefit and origin. Meanwhile vegetarian dishes comprise the majority of the food served and are always available as an option. We are unable to meet vegan requirements.
